Why we chose them
Located at an altitude of 1100 meters above sea level and completely renewed at the beginning of 2000, Malga Verde is a young company still
managed by Maurizio Cortese, who founded the business together with his brother Cristiano, and today has been joined by his three sons, Milady,
Michele and Davide, who left their respective office works to face this new challenge in the name of tradition. During the summer pasture, from
June
to mid-October, everyone is involved in the activities: Milady takes care of the store, Michele works in the dairy, Davide takes care of the
communication while their father Maurizio continues to follow the breeding. In 2018, a farmhouse was also opened to be able to taste the products
of Malga Verde directly on site.
